Surrounded by a Dense Growth of Black Gun
Trees-The Problem Solved.

Trees-The Problem Solved.
special to the Atlanta Constitution from
Columbia, S. c.. says The story of the poison
ing of Dawho lake, in Georgetown county by a
hail storm, telegraph the Constitution on
the Sth inst. and which many persons supposed
to be exceedingly ''fshy," has been corroborated
in every particular by prominent citizen of
Georgetown, who has investigated the matter at
the request of General Greedy, chief of the
weather service. A dense mass of black gum
known that the leaves of this tree are strongly
impregnated with tanniG acid. It has also been
ascertained that the bottom Of the lake contains
a slight deposit of iron. The poisoning of the
water, therefore, is thus explained The hail
storm bruised and filed the lake with the leaves
emanaring from which mingled with the iron
and formed tannate of iron, causing the water
to turn black ink and bitter as Quinine, and
poisoning the fishes by thousands Some of the
people living in that neighborhood believe that
the condition of the lake is due to judgment
from God.
This lake is, in reality, God send for many
poor family near by. They get fish from it the
year around and if 1t is not replenished soon it
will be a judgment to them sure enough. One
species of the fish inhabiting this lake survived
the singular disaster, and that was the mud fish,
which buried itself in the mud at the bottom
and thus ped the effects of the poison. The
stencil arising from the mass of dead and rotten
fish is described fearful
The thousands OF buZzards taking their de-
parture in the evening for their roostng places,
after days feast described as making a
noise similar to that OF an approaching cyclone
On each end of Dawho lake, about half mile
distant, is a small lake, in which plumbers of fish
also abound, but which, upon examination,
show no signs of the hail-sto which swept
over Dawho This confirms the belief that the
direct cause of the disaster to the fish is due to
the hail storm.

BUTLER AND THE BELLS.
How the Commanding General at New Orleans
Assisted in the Cause of Religion.

How the Commanding General at New Orleans
Assisted in the Cause of Religion.
To the Editor of the New York Sun:
The following extract from the Washington
Post of this morning leads me 30 give a detail of
the war of which the editor and correspondent
evidently know nothing, and there may be
others possibly similarly ignorant:
"A correspondent of the Bangor Commercial
writes that when Ben Butler claims to have
turned all the property taken from the South he
must have forgotten a church bell that was sold
to the Baptist Church of Wayne, in this State.
The idea conveyed. if true, is essentially charac-
terstlc of Butler. He can't even assist in the
cause of religion. except In a manner peculiarly
his OWL"
When New Orleans was captured, In May.
1862 in one of its squares was found large
number of church and plantation bells which
had been donated to the rebels in New Orleans
to be cast into cannon. The bell of st. Patricks
Cathedral in New Orleans, had been taken
from its hangings to the bell deck. preparatory
to lowering it to the ground to be used for the
same purpose. The property and considerable
other like sort to be dedicated by the owners to
warlike purposes against the United States,
seemed to the commanding General to be con-
traband OF war; and having been captured, be-
loneed to the United States.
The General had many transports returning
to Boston which needed ballast. He, therefore,
ordered these bells and useless cannon and other
material of like sort TO be put OF board return
ing transports, consigned to the United States
quartermaster at Boston. The bell of St. Pat
rick's Church escaped only because :he clergy
man claimed it had not been delivered. He
given the beneht OF the doubt, It being manner
peculiarly his own. in the commanding general
to "assist in the of religion" in that way if
he could. st. Patrick's bell was rehanged. The
other bells to sell at auction in Boston, ana
there were many of them, quite a number o.
churches and school houses in New England cali,
their members and scholars together by the aid
of bells dedicated, which were captured from
the enemies of the United States. Who will ad-
vocate their return?

John Sherman's Daughter.

Boston Record
We notice paragraph going the rounds that
Senator John Sherman's child is daughter
named Mary, who last year, for the first time,
entered society in Washington. Mr.. and Mrs.
Sherman have no children of their own and never
had. The circumstances of the adoption, many
years ago. of this young girl were somewhat
markabe. The Senator and his wife day
were visiting orphan asylum, with no thought
of adopting one of it's inmates, when this little
child, then almost an infant, seemed to take
great fancy to the Senator, and would hardly con-
sent to have him go away. This touched man
who is naturally stern and cold in his manner,
for he probably had not experienced for years
much dsinterested warmth of feeling from any
person that shown by this little girl. The
result a sudden resolve to adopt her. and the
Senator and his wife took the child home with
Them, where she has ever since been treated
their own daughter. There is romance enough
In this episode to make very pretty story, pro-
vided John Sherman should be a candidate for
President next year.

New YORK June 2s.-At the headquarters of
the Knights of Labor, to-day, it was stated that
nothing was known as to the truth falsity of
the statement that Rev. Dr. McGlynn was going
to join the Knights. It was said however, if he
Joined, that those who expected to him as a
weapon to overthrow Powderly would be disap-
pointed.
PHILADELPHIA June 2S.--In reference to the
dispatches which announce that Rev Dr. Edward
McGlynn intends to become a knight of Labor.
and is also regarded by many probable
formidable opponent of General Master Work
man Powderly, General Secretary Litchman of
the K. of L., said this afternoon: Il know
nothing further than what hear from the dis
patches published in the morning papers II
DIR. McGlynn wishes to join the order, am
he will be welcome. AS for the statement that
he will be opponent to Mr.. Powderly,
it is simply a case of overwrought imagination.
DR.. McGynn could not. by any possible means,
be even delegate to the General Assembly inside
of two years. He would have to first join
local assembly and be q member for six months
before he could be q delegate to a district as
sembly, and then it would require eighteen
months more to qualify him as member Of the
General Assembly. The next General Assembly,
when the election takes place, occurs next
